    Any help would be appreciated. I had the hydraulic fluid changed and it is at max level. The 30 amp fuse behind the middle console keeps blowing. I checked for shorts and could not find any. I know the 355 is notorious for bad seat potentiometer but I have not heard that this causes the fuse to blow. Also does anyone have an idea on the cost to have the seat potentiometer replaced? I was quoted $4000 by dealer without taking the car in for diagnosis. Thank you

    When does the fuse blow? Same every time?
    I am sure we can do it for $3950.00 easy. I am kidding. I can check with our parts department on part prices, as a tech I don't always ask how much the part cost.
    I don't know where you are. You can PM me and I'll give you a quote just to compare.

    The potentiometer is about $150 each. You can wire it so that it never bothers you again, period.

    $4,000 to change to pots, wow.

    My passenget seat will not go back all the way and dealer is saying the track is broken. They want $1750 just for the part. Lord knows the labor to fix. Is this normal, would it be better to just go to an independent? Any help would be greatlhy appreciated.
